It’s been 3 years and 4 months since my mother died. It’s been 4 months since I ended a 3 year long relationship that ultimately ended because I have no idea who I am. I am 21 years old with no idea what I want to be when I grow up No idea where I am supposed to fit in No idea who I’m supposed to fit in with. I have felt so lost the past 3 years with the loss of my mom and on top of that I was in this relationship that was so new to me. Here I am 3 years later still without my mom but also without my relationship. And I just want to figure out who I am and where I belong in the world.

I'm sorry for your loss. I can imagine that you're feeling this way. Keep loving yourself and you will get there.
I am 30 years old and feel like I have no idea who I am ... I was with the same man for 13 years since I was 17 and that is no longer ... I find my self thinking what music do you like, what are your hobbies, fav movies the list goes on and I have no idea what I like etc ... I have been trying to work on my self for the last year re discovering the me and finding new stuff out etc I just forced my self to try new things and see what happens .... You are 21 I remember being 21 and it was miserable I was still married and being cheated on constantly I had no self esteem and had no idea about anything Your 20s are a growing year !! If you don’t know your career now one day you will find it just try and push your self to do new things daily and you will find what you like etc ... I would also recommend therapy or a life coach ... I would love to do this but my funds are limited and I don’t have insurance so I use this forum in stead Just know your not alone we are all people just trying to figure our selves out :) Hope this helps I know it was long sorry and my grammar is always bad when texting on my phone
